“Students are proud of their academy. It is a calm and orderly place to learn, where most students work hard, and all feel safe. Leaders at all levels, including governors, have acted effectively to improve the academy. They have raised the quality of teaching by eliminating any inadequate practice, and have improved students’ behaviour. They have clear and convincing plans to improve the academy further.”
